Roger Vivier Vivier Marlene embellished suede sandals

Roger Vivier’s Vivier Marlene sandals capture the maison's affinity for sculptural forms. Defined by a soft suede upper, the design draws the eye to its signature jeweled heel—a crystal-embellished sphere set on a geometric base. They offer a refined foundation for after-dark ensembles.

The art of the detail

Rendered in a deep black hue, the Vivier Marlene sandals are meticulously shaped from supple leather. The modern silhouette is distinguished by a wide upper band and a contemporary square open toe, creating clean lines that frame the foot. Supported by a full leather sole for a seamless finish, the design's most notable feature is its artfully constructed heel, offering both stability and a point of visual interest. The slip-on style ensures ease of wear while maintaining a polished and sophisticated profile from every angle.

How to wear

Style the Vivier Marlene sandals with a tailored tuxedo dress for a modern take on formal dressing. The architectural heel complements the sharp lines of the suiting, creating a balanced yet compelling look. For a softer approach, pair them with a fluid silk slip dress and a coordinating clutch for gallery openings or upscale dinner reservations. The shoe’s distinctive embellishment acts as a subtle centerpiece, allowing for minimal jewelry. These sandals are a versatile choice for any occasion that calls for understated polish, from cocktail hours to formal receptions.
